PT 686A Documentation and Delegation


0.5 credits
This online, asynchronous course is designed to discuss the essential components of documentation to assist the physical therapist to create meaningful documentation that serves as an adjunct to clinical practice. A clinical reasoning process for how documentation is formed utilizing the Elements of the Physical Therapist Patient Management Model and International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model terminology is common throughout the lessons in this course. The principles guiding effective documentation and delegation of physical therapist practice to physical therapist assistants, aides and students will be discussed in the context of clinical scenarios that require self-reflection which will serve to facilitate the development of clinical-decision making skills.
